Suggested Usage:
-Apply serum morning and evening on clean skin. If you experience brief tingling or minor sloughing, don‘t be concerned, this is normal.
-The 5% Retexturizing Complex gently resurfaces skin‘s appearance and gives cell turnover a jumpstart. As the product activates on skin, you may experience minor sloughing upon application while superficial dead skin cells are combining with the product and being lifted off to unveil smoother-, brighter-looking skin. -To minimize sloughing, gently pat (don‘t rub) serum into skin. -Wait until skin is dry and serum is fully absorbed before applying moisturizer. If sloughing does occur, simply sweep away with fingertips.
Precautions:
-If irritation occurs, limit frequency of use, and if it persists, discontinue use and consult a physician. -Avoid eye area. -Use sunscreen and limit sun exposure while using and the week after.
